What is the comprehensive fuel consumption of the Passat?
4 Answers
Passat 1.8t fuel consumption is 6.8 liters. The following is an introduction to fuel consumption: Reasons for increased fuel consumption: Displacement: The engine displacement has a certain impact on the car's fuel consumption, but this impact is a fixed value. Tire pressure: The car's fuel consumption is also directly related to tire pressure. When the tire pressure is too high or too low, the car's fuel consumption will increase. Road conditions: The road conditions on which the car is driven also affect fuel consumption. Methods to reduce fuel consumption: Start slowly, avoid sudden acceleration, shift gears at low RPM, do not compete with others at traffic lights, repair any dents on the car body, close windows at high speeds to reduce drag, coast in high gear (never coast in neutral as it may lead to steering and brake failure), and note that personal driving habits can make a big difference. Drive safely: do not drive under the influence of alcohol, do not drive while fatigued, do not exceed speed limits or overload, and always wear your seatbelt.
I've driven the Passat 330TSI for three years, and the combined fuel consumption really depends on road conditions. In city traffic with AC on, it can reach around 10L, while on highways it's particularly fuel-efficient, basically just over 6L. If you drive gently and mix in some elevated expressways, it stays around 8.2L. With a full 66L tank, it's no problem to run over 700 kilometers. Remember to keep tire pressure at 2.5 and avoid sudden braking or acceleration, and you can save another half liter. My colleague's hybrid version is even more impressive, showing only 4.3L on the display, but I'm quite satisfied with the performance of this gasoline car.
Just picked up the Passat 380 Flagship edition, the dashboard shows a long-term fuel consumption of 7.8L. The car's Eco mode is really smart, it automatically coasts downhill to save fuel. At 110 km/h on the highway, the RPM stays below 2000, with an instant fuel consumption of just 5.9L. In the city, the start-stop system kicks in promptly, saving a lot while waiting at red lights. However, switching to Sport mode pushes the consumption up to 11L. It's recommended to stick with Eco mode long-term and avoid setting the air conditioning too low, as it has a noticeable impact on fuel efficiency.
The Passat 1.4T version was tested to be the most fuel-efficient. City commuting shows 8.3L on the dashboard, with an additional 1L when using air conditioning. The EA211 engine paired with the dual-clutch transmission is indeed economical, with the most fuel-efficient speed being a steady 60-80 km/h. After filling up with 95-octane fuel when the fuel light comes on, it can run for 780 kilometers. Winter fuel consumption is higher, and cold starts consume more fuel. It is recommended to regularly replace the air filter and use 0W-20 engine oil, which has been personally tested to reduce fuel consumption by 0.5L.
